———————————————— ——
I already checked Park Ha-jin’s status window through ‘Eyes of Truth’.
Assassination series that received a strong evaluation in one-on-one.
In particular, ‘shallow breathing’ was a very coveted ability.
‘Because it’s a passive skill that can complement long-term battles.’
definitely worth using
That’s why it was provocation.
[Copy condition: If you increase friendship with the target to the maximum, you can copy the ‘unique ability’, and if you increase the enmity with the target to the maximum, you can copy ‘one of the desired skills’.
] for.
‘It’s not that difficult to raise hostility.’
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth went up.
On the contrary, Park Ha-jin’s face, who was watching that scene, was distorted.
“This bastard… is he laughing in this situation?”
Sreung!
But just as the sword was about to be drawn.
Jinhyeok moved quickly for half a beat.
He stretched out the bottle of water he was holding.
Chow ah!
The spray of water covered Park Ha-jin’s face.
“What?”
Park Ha-jin closed his eyes involuntarily.
A time of less than one second.
But in battle, that short time was fatal.
The belatedly drawn sword cut through the air.
Of course, the target that was supposed to be bleeding and screaming had long since disappeared.
I can’t feel the taste.
Something is wrong.
The moment I had that thought.
thump!
Park Ha-jin felt a sharp pain in his thigh.
staggering
“Quaaaaagh!”
body collapsed
Park Ha-jin grabbed his thighs and rolled on the bare ground.
A blow that was so fast and accurate that it hit the target.
For a while, it would be difficult to even get up, let alone fight.
“What happened?”
“You attacked alone and fell alone?”
“Is the staff twisted?”
stupid mistake.
unexpected luck.
That’s how it looked in the eyes of people who didn’t know.
Out of hundreds of people, only three people were able to properly grasp the movements of the moment.
Lee Tae-min and Yoo Yeon-hwa, who followed Jin-hyeok.
And it was only Kim Ki-tae from the Fighting Fathers Guild.
‘I thought your older brother was older than us, but is this crazy?’
Taemin Lee swallowed dry saliva.
The timing of taking a surprise attack.
The timing to use the gap to dig into the square is also perfect.
It looked fine on the outside, but it was unmistakable.
That Park Ha-jin’s legs aren’t normal right now.
Of course, you probably don’t even know how serious the injury is.
“Ugh…”
A pitiful sigh came from Yoo Yeon-hwa’s mouth.
This is because the appearance of being completely ridiculed overlapped with the image of himself playing sparring with his grandfather in the past.
‘No, rather worse.’
At that time, there was even a purpose of training.
But now.
There is nothing to learn from the victim’s position.
Because it was just one-sided shooting.
***
‘What is it?’
Park Ha-jin couldn’t understand this situation at all.
He was definitely the one who should have been lying on the floor.
But why…
do I feel the cold touch of marble on my cheek?
“Damn it!”
A swear word came out of his mouth.
Doing such an ugly thing while Kim Ki-tae is watching.
No matter how careless, it was a mistake that could not be undone.
“This bastard really sucks.”
Park Ha-jin tried to get up from the awkward dance position.
But just then. A strong feeling of pressure pressed against his neck.
Awesome!
“Oops?”
“Broken neck. It’s lying flat.”
Jinhyeok looked down at Park Hajin from above.
“Keck! keek! Feet… Feet! Aren’t you going to clean it up?”
Park Ha-jin struggled.
I tried to shake it off right away, but somehow the opponent’s legs didn’t budge.
“Oh brother!”
It was then that Park Hana’s voice was heard.
He heard the commotion and ran to the front.
“What kind of guy!”
Park Ha-na glared at the person who attacked her blood with a lifeless look.
But as soon as our eyes met with the object.
rattle.
My whole body started to tremble like an aspen tree.
“Huh huh?”
A person I never wanted to meet.
The devil that I dared not even look at is right in front of me.
“Yeah. I never thought I’d see you this soon. Intern.”
Jinhyuk smiled brightly.
“W Why are you here…?”
“Why did you come for a test? I’m in a bad mood because of the guy who cuts in line and makes a lot of noise.”
Jinhyuk put a little more weight on his feet.
“Turn it off!”
The wriggling Park Ha-jin has calmed down.
It’s quieted down a bit now.
‘By the way, are the copy conditions not yet complete?’
I thought this was enough to set the hostility to the highest level.
Apparently, the conditions the system wanted were more demanding than I thought.
‘I can’t. I have no choice but to push harder.’
It was when I was thinking so.
“Just do it.”
He felt heavy pressure on Jinhyuk’s shoulders.
It was Kim Ki-tae.
[‘Eye of Truth’ is activated!]
[Activation of the skill is canceled because the level difference has exceeded a certain level!]
You cannot see the status window with your eyes.
I mean yes.
‘It means that at least level 20 has passed.’
The advantage of being able to monopolize the hunting ground and hunt by driving it.
This was the reason you and I wanted to go to a large guild.
Jinhyuk looked at the hand holding his shoulder for a moment.
And he muttered like he was talking to himself.
“…I didn’t know.”
“What did you not know?”
“I didn’t know this guy had a babysitter.”
It was a provocative remark, but there was no change in Kim Ki-tae’s expression.
“It’s a lot of work, but I can’t do it. This guy has some useful corners in his own way.”
“It’s a useful corner…”
Jinhyeok smiled.
“Is it because we have a route to supply ‘Korean ginseng’ to China?”
“what?”
Unlike before, this time Kim Ki-tae’s expression changed noticeably.
The pupil where the earthquake occurs.
Besides, even the hand holding her shoulder was trembling slightly.
“How do you know that?”
“Your question is a bit wrong. I’m not asking how you know that.”
If you know that much information.
If anyone knows that much information.
if.
“We should ask if Korean ginseng can solve the side effects it has.”
At the same time as Jinhyeok’s words ended.
Whoa!
[Kim Ki-tae activates Lv3 ‘Dark Barrier’!]
A transparent curtain unfolded.
Park Ha-jin, Park Ha-na and everyone around them disappeared.
In a world cut off from the outside world, Kim Ki-tae looked straight at Jin-hyeok.
“You… what the hell are you? What do you know about all that?”
It was interesting at first.
It was because the newbie who was just undergoing a test played with Park Ha-jin.
I even slightly admired the effortless movement.
However, as Jinhyeok’s remarks continued, interest soon turned into uncomfortable curiosity.
In the end, it turned into a strong hostility.
It had to be.
Izai…
knows too much.
too many things to overdo.
“I think the question is wrong again.”
Jinhyuk shrugged.
“It doesn’t matter how or what I know. I should have asked what I could trade the information I know for.”
This is not a hearing.
Only the results matter.
It doesn’t matter what the motive or process is.
“You want to make an exchange?
“okay. Aren’t you guys going to be frantic to reduce the side effects anyway?”
Kim Ki-tae pressed his lips together as if he had been hit hard.
But it was only for a moment.
“You sound like you prepared this deal in advance.”
There are too many things that take things to see as impromptu.
A stage prepared by knowing the target in advance.
If you think so, the front and back are correct.
Jinhyeok shrugged his shoulders instead of saying positively.
“that’s right. Actually, I knew you would come here.”
As soon as I heard the word test from Lee Tae-min yesterday, I came up with a hypothesis.
The best place to present yourself.
Park Ha-na, who rose to the Hall of Fame and raised her stock price, will not miss this.
Of course, I will come as soon as the day is bright.
Of course, with Park Ha-jin, who is anxious about the guild’s growth.
But it doesn’t end here.
Will Park Ha-jin, who wants connections, come alone?
No way.
He must have wanted to attract the guys upstairs somehow.
Of course, the other side wouldn’t want to blow up the opportunity to publicize it extensively in the media.
Alignment of interests.
so i was sure
Dangun or the father to fight.
At least one of the two would come with an executive level.
‘I expected that the probability would be higher for the father of a fight aiming for first place from second place.’
That prediction was exactly right.
“…If what you say is true. Do you have any evidence? Anyone can open their mouth.”
evidence?
Of course there is.
“If you take Korean ginseng raw, symptoms of magic poisoning will occur. Of course, adjusting the dose or using the ‘purified water’ on the second floor can alleviate the symptoms, but it’s not a fundamental solution.”
“so?”
“A total of three items are needed.”
Jinhyuk spread three fingers.
“Karracian juice. Moonlight Stone. It is the root of Mandragora. The first two are available on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the tower, so it doesn’t matter, but the problem is that we don’t know where the root of the last Mandragora is.”
…consistent
The combination book obtained by the research team and explorers currently belonging to the Brawl Abhi Guild, and what this man said.
Two of the three ingredients were easily obtained.
Only one.
There was no way to save Mandragora’s root.
I couldn’t even figure out what floor the tower was on.
‘If you look at the recipe and even know the types of ingredients… that’s true.’
It means that the minimum requirements for trading are met.
The worry didn’t last long.
“good night. I’ll go over your words. but.”
At that moment, the sword worn by Kim Ki-tae’s waist exploded.
Sreung!
It is so fast that it cannot even be compared with Park Ha-jin.
The tip of the sword that stretched right in front of Jinhyeok’s nose gave off an alert.
“If you’re going to play a clumsy trick, be prepared.”
“If you’re cheating, tell me to prepare?”
“okay. At that time, you won’t be able to get over it with words like this.”
this… really.
I guess there was a bit of a misunderstanding.
Jinhyuk scratched his head.
At the same time, the hand that moved slowly grabbed the blade.
“I don’t want to bell, so you don’t have to hold it with your hand.”
Kim Ki-tae laughed.
Right then.
Roaring!
[Lv2 ‘Fire element’ is activated!]
[The stat ‘Gap’ is activated due to the level difference with the target!]
Sparks shimmer.
The blade burned red.
The heat was too hot for the skin to bear.
Even the moisture in the air began to evaporate rapidly.
“…what?”
Kim Ki-tae hurriedly tried to draw the sword, but it was too late.
Kakak!
In the other hand of Jinhyeok, a red dagger was clutched.
Trajectory drawn transversely.
A thin gold was drawn on the blade of Kim Ki-tae.
Too weak to be called a crack.
However, it is a line without the slightest blur.
That moment.
Took!
The blade, split in half, fell to the floor.
‘He said he cut off a weapon he had even strengthened?’
in one blow?
‘Such nonsense…!’
Kim Ki-tae looked at the blade and the handle with a blank expression.
Obviously, the opponent is a player who is only a single digit level.
But what do you mean?
This vicious burden that suffocates the entire body.
As if levels don’t mean anything.
Instinct gave the highest warning.
Jinhyuk opened his mouth.
“Don’t get me wrong. I am the one who makes the offer. I am the one who gives the opportunity.”
A voice that was colder than ever came out.
“The reason I do such troublesome things is because I don’t even waste time tug-of-war with you guys.”
You have to go to the ‘ruins’ on the first floor right away.
For that, I spent a month in the labyrinth.
However, I am willing to give it a minute if someone who doesn’t understand the subject barks at me.
“You are the one to keep in mind.”
Right here.
“If you play a clumsy trick…”
Draw a line.
“That the entire Fighting Fathers Guild could be destroyed.”
It’s just one warning.
